If you get the full 4,000 United Miles, the Cost Per Mile for this offer is $8 / 4000 miles = 1/10th of a cent per a mile.

After you sign up for Netflix, according to FlyerTalk, it takes about 1 week for the miles to post to your United account.

After the miles post, simply cancel if you want.

I have done this offer in the past for United and AA, and it is one of the cheapest and easiest way to earn a decent amount of miles.

Also Netflix in itself is pretty awesome, so that is an added bonus.

I get emails constantly from FFU Readers saying, “I need 3,000 United Miles for an Award, what is the quickest and easiest way to get more miles?”.

99% of the time, they are out of luck and end up having to purchase the miles from United for an outrageous amount of money because United know you are in a bind and need the miles!

As I always say, it is all about Long Term Planning.

You may not need the 4,000 Miles today, but you may need them in 8 months, so don’t put this off!

For $8, you really cannot beat this offer.

How Much Are 4,000 United Miles Worth?

If you ended up in a bind and absolutely needed an additional 4,000 United Miles to book an Award Ticket, United.com would charge you $150.50.

Or $35 per every 1,000 United Miles you purchase.

I will let you do the math, but what sounds like a better deal?

$8 or $150.50?

Repeat Customers

As I stated above, I have taken advantage of this Netflix promotion before withboth United and AA.

The reason I can sign up for the same promotion again and get the miles again is because when Continental / United merged, we all got “new” MileagePlus numbers.

So therefore almost everyone should be eligible for this offer!

Even if you don’t have a United MileagePlus Explorer Card, I’d still recommend signing up for this offer because 2,000 United Miles for $8 is still a steal. On United.com, 2,000 Miles would cost $75.25.

Just to be safe, I always use a new email address when signing up for these Netflix offers.
